All's well if all ends well.
William Shakespeare
Image
Doubt thou the stars are fire Doubt that the sun doth move Doubt truth to be a liar But never doubt I love.
William Shakespeare
Image
All's well that ends well still the fine's the crown. Whate'er the course, the end is the renown.
William Shakespeare
Image
I shall the effect of this good lesson keeps as watchman to my heart.
William Shakespeare

Beggar that I am, I am even poor in thanks, but I thank you and sure, dear friends, my thanks are too dear a halfpenny.
William Shakespeare

While he was drunk asleep, or in his rage, or in the incestuous pleasure of his bed.
William Shakespeare
Image
Frame your mind to mirth and merriment which bars a thousand harms and lengthens life.
